1099 Maintenance
Gravity keeps a 1099 Summary Record for each vendor for each calendar year in each Entity. The 1099 amounts can be manually edited before 1099s are created for a vendor. Access the 1099 maintenance function from the systems setting purchasing options.
Note: Gravity supports multi-entity processing. When using multi-entity, be sure that you're processing the transaction in the correct entity.
Vendor Names, Addresses and details can be updated in bulk from the Active 1099 Maintenance view. Select the records to be updated and select Update Vendor from the Action Menu.
